Some of Anne Rice's most enduring art comes from the darkest corners of her imagination. The Vampire Chronicles have been read by millions around the world.
Find out what Anne Rice's vampire characters were really about, and why she has decided to leave them behind. Anne Rice is still writing but this time, not from the dark side. Her latest book is Called Out of Darkness: A Spiritual Confession. Mary Hynes talks to Anne Rice this week on Tapestry.
Also this week, a netherworld of a different kind. We'll visit Iceland, where belief in elves is something of a national pastime. Find out why these hidden people are still such a powerful force in the country, with freelance broadcaster Wanita Bates as our guide.
Music featured on the program:
Cantique de Noel by Angelique Kidjo, from the CD World Christmas.
Glosoli by Sigur Ros, from the CD Takk.
